BERNE, N.Y. — Law enforcement officials say one man is dead in a single-engine plane crash in upstate New York.

The Albany Times Union says the Piper Cherokee with one occupant crashed at about 7 p.m. Monday in a rural section of the town of Berne.

Authorities say the name of the victim was being withheld pending notification of next of kin. No one else was hurt in the crash and authorities were still investigating where the flight originated from.

The cause of the crash was unclear, but Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple told the paper that low visibility may have been an issue.

Apple said officials from the National Transportation Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administration were expected to arrive in the Albany area on Tuesday to investigate the crash.
